I don't quite understand it... If Migros is so unbelievably bad, why are you on Migipedia all the time and rating products badly? Nobody is forcing you to shop at Migros...

Because I have shopped at Migros for most of my life and have now realized that the products at Coop are much better, at a comparable price! So I recently switched to Coop. But I still like to see what Migros has to offer.

What has been going on here in the last few weeks is not a "little criticism of Migros" - which is certainly always very justified. Take the well-known Monty Python sketch and replace "spam" with "eco", then it sounds something like the Migipedia homepage: Would you like popcorn, eco, eco, eco and eco? Or would you prefer eco, cooler bags, eco, eco and boxer shorts and eco, there's not so much eco in there?
Or to put it another way: Migros is not a health food store, and I really hope that it never will be, otherwise I would have to look for another place to shop in Switzerland (Aldi? Denner?). Coop is already going too far in that direction for me. If you think health food shops, organic stores or Coop are better, please. Everyone should buy what they like. I myself would never think of buying one of the "Körnlipicker" products compared here.
But don't keep spamming the forum with your eco-topics. Otherwise you'll really need a separate "Generation M" forum at some point, where you can (dis)care for these topics...
That's not for the budget bird to decide. Migros could make it very easy for itself: Don't advertise with eco-promises, dump its own organic label and bury Cumulus-Green, then the issue here will soon be over and those who want eco will go elsewhere. But as long as Migros continues to push the organic theme itself, it will have to live with the fact that critical minds will be watching it. Then it's probably the budget bird that's out of place here (I'm so sorry... ;-)
In terms of customer service, data protection and, of course, the brilliant idea of Migipedia, Migros is way ahead of Coop. Hygiene is also often poor at Coop. So Coop could still learn a lot from Migros. The biggest shortcoming at Migros is that it does not want to label, promote or stock any products with the Bud organic label and instead has its own, often sadly inferior, organic label.
Even the best should not be overdone. Eco-improvers are really starting to annoy us with this extreme attitude, which fails to strike a balance between reason, enjoyment, economy and ecology.

I've already bought the Migros organic beans and didn't even realize they weren't from Switzerland. I'll have to read the small print more carefully in future, thanks for the tip @deactivated user
So Migros, please sell Swiss organic beans! Why is this not possible? What a pity...
From now on I'll just buy these beans, unfortunately not organic, but from Switzerland. Which is better, organic from abroad or non-organic from Switzerland? I tend to prefer Swiss products.
